Abstract

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a deuterated ethanol from an acetic acid, an acetate, or an amide by reaction with D

Description

PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF DEUTERATED ETHANOL FROM
D2
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a deuterated ethanol from D2.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Deuterium (D or 2H) is a stable, non-radioactive isotope of hydrogen.
Deuterium-enriched organic compounds such as a deuterated ethanol are known. US Patent No. 8,658,236 describes an alcoholic beverage of water and ethanol, wherein at least 5 mole percent of the ethanol is a deuterated ethanol. This alcoholic beverage is believed to diminish the negative side effects associated with the consumption of ethanol.
[0003] The production of a deuterated-ethanol containing alcoholic beverage requires the preparation of a deuterated ethanol in an efficient, safe, and cost-effective manner. A known process for the preparation of a deuterated alcohol (e.g., deuterated ethanol) involves an H/D exchange reaction between a non-deuterated alcohol and D2O.
Depending on the process, the resulting deuterated alcohol may comprise deuterium in different positions. Examples of such processes can be found in Chemistry Letters 34, No.2 (2005), p.192- 193 "Ruthenium catalyzed deuterium labelling of a-carbon in primary alcohol and primary/secondary amine in D2O"; Adv. Synth. Catal. 2008, 350, p. 2215 - 2218 "A method for the regioselective deuteration of alcohols"; Org. Lett. 2015, 17, p. 4794-4797 "Ruthenium Catalyzed Selective a- and α,β-Deuteration of Alcohols Using D20" and Catalysis Communications 84 (2016) p. 67-70 "Efficient deuterium labelling of alcohols in deuterated water catalyzed by ruthenium pincer complexes".
[0004] Other routes to produce a deuterated alcohol involve several consecutive reactions requiring expensive and/or hazardous material. For each of these
transformations, purification and isolation of the intermediates are necessary.
[0005] In view of the above, it is desirable to be able to synthesize deuterated ethanol in an efficient, safe and cost-effective manner. It is further desirable to synthesize deuterated ethanol with deuteration substantially only at a desired position(s).
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] In an aspect, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of deuterated ethanol from ethanol, D2, and a catalyst.
[0007] These and other aspects, which will become apparent during the following detailed , have achieved by the inventors' discovery of a new process of making deuterated ethanol.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0008] Thus, in an aspect, the present invention provides a novel process for the preparation of a deuterated ethanol of formula (I):
CR!R^CR^OH (I)
comprising: reacting compound (II) with D2 in the presence of a catalyst of formula (III):
MLaXb (HI)
wherein: R^-R5 are independently H or D, provided that the abundance of D in R4 and R5 is at least 70%;
compound (II) is selected from: acetic acid, an acetate, and an amide;
M is a transition metal;
L is a ligand;
X is a counterion;
a is an integer selected from 1-5; and,
b is an integer selected from 0-5.
[0009] The abundance of D in R4 and R5 (the CH2 position) and in R1, R2, and R3 (the C¾ position) can be measured by ¾ NMR. The 70% abundance of D in R4 and R5 means that 70% of all R4 and R5 present are D (as opposed to the natural abundance of 0.01%).
[0010] The process of the present invention uses D2 as the deuterium source which is a non-toxic gas. The amount of the catalyst (III) required for the process is very small, making the process cost effective. Also, the catalyst (III) can be easily separated from the desired product.
[0011] In another aspect, the abundance of D in R4 and R5 is at least 80%. Additional examples of the abundance of D in R4 and R5 include at least 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, and 99.5%.
[0012] In another aspect, the incorporation of D occurs preferentially in R4 and R5 over R^R3. In another aspect, the abundance of D in R^R3 is at most 50%. Additional examples of the abundance of D in R^R3 include at most 45, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, and 1%. [0013] In another aspect, the abundance of D in R4 and R5 is at least 90% and the abundance of D in R^R3 is at most 5%. Additional examples include (a) at least 95% and at most 1%, and (b) at least 99% and at most 1%.
[0014] The conversion of ethanol to deuterated ethanol in the present process can be determined by ¾ NMR. The conversion is the molar ratio of deuterated ethanol formed divided by the initial amount of starting ethanol (un-enriched ethanol). In an aspect, the conversion percentage (molar ratio x 100) is at least 90%. Additional examples of the conversion percentage include at least 95%, at least 98%, and at least 99%.

[0096] Other features of the invention will become apparent in the course of the following descriptions of exemplary embodiments that are given for illustration of the invention and are not intended to be limiting thereof. [0097] Examples
[0098] The structures of the compound (II) tested are as follows:
[0099] The structures of the catalysts used are shown below.
Ru-MACHO® , Ru-MACHO®-BH
Ru-Firmenich
[00100] Experiment set 1
[00101] In a glovebox, under N2 atmosphere, the catalyst (and base when required) was placed inside 5 mL vials under N2 atmosphere. The solvent when used was added followed by the substrate (compound (II)). The vial was placed inside an autoclave and purged with D2. The pressure of D2 was increased to 50 bar and the temperature was increased to 70°C while stirring at 500rpm with a magnetic stirred. After 16h, the reaction mixture was cooled. After purging with N2, the autoclave was opened and the reaction mixture was analyzed by *H NMR to determine the conversion and D incorporation.
[00102] The reaction conditions were as follows: 50 bar D2, Substrate = 15-20 wt%, ratio of Substrate/Catalyst=1000, Base = 5 mol % relative to substrate when present, 70°C, 16h.
[00103] The experiments were performed using methyl acetate with various catalysts. Results are shown in Table 1.
[00104] Table 1
For experiments 4 and 5, KOMe (potassium methoxide) was added (50 eq/Ru).
[00105] The reaction of the acetate with D2 results in a deuterated ethanol and a further (side-product) alcohol. The type of the further alcohol depends on the type of the acetate, e.g. when the acetate is methyl acetate, the further alcohol is methanol. The abundance of D in the C¾ position and the CH3 position was determined by subjecting the resulting mixture to ¾ NMR. The abundance of D in the C¾ position was determined by the amount of the residual H in the C¾ position. The "residual H at the CH2 position" was determined by the normalized ratio of area of the C¾ signal in the ethanol produced divided by the area of the signal of the further alcohol. The complement to 100 of this quantity equals to the abundance of D in the C¾ position. The abundance of D in the CH3 position was determined in a similar manner.
[00106] In Exp 1, Ru-MACHO-BH gives full conversion of methyl acetate to a deuterated ethanol with a deuterium incorporation over 99% in the CH2 position and no significant deuterium incorporation in the CH3 position. The reaction was conducted without any solvent. Similar results were obtained when the reaction is done in THF or MeOH as solvent (Exp 2 and 3).
[00107] Ru-MACHO (Exp 4) or Ru-Firmenich (Exp 5) need to be activated by a strong base such as KOMe. In this case, a good conversion of Me acetate was observed but a significant D incorporation at CH3 was also observed.
[00108] Exp 1 was repeated except that the pressure was 5 bar D2 instead of 50 bar D2. The conversion was 87% with 99% D incorporation at CH2 position.
[00109] Experiment set 2
[00110] The experiments were performed in the same way as in Experiment Set 1 using various substrates with Ru-MACHO-BH, except experiment 11 which uses Ru- MACHO. Results are shown in Table 2.
[00111] Table 2
[00112] When Ru-Macho-BH was used as the catalyst, methyl acetate led to the highest selectivity for the D-incorporation at C¾. The other acetates were also tested with Ru-Macho-BH without any solvent (Exp 6-10). Good conversions were obtained in all cases. However, a lower D incorporation at C¾ position was obtained by the other acetates compared with methyl acetate (Exp 1). This may be due to H/D exchange between the alcohols formed. This H/D exchange may not occur in the case of MeOH produced when the acetate is methyl acetate.
[00113] Further, deuterated ethanol was obtained from tBu acetate using Ru- Macho as the catalyst although at a lower conversion (Ex 11). [00114] Experiment set 3
[00115] The experiments were performed in the same way as in Experiment set 1 using methyl acetate with various catalysts. Results are shown in Table 3.
[00116] The reaction conditions were as follows: neat, P(D2) = 50 bar, T = 90°C, time = 16h.
[00117] Table 3
[00118] In Exp 13, the in-situ activation of Ru-Macho with NaBH4 also gives an active catalyst leading to a good D incorporation. The selectivity towards D
incorporation at the CH2 position is higher than when KOMe is used as the base. The Firmenich catalyst activated in-situ with NaBH4 led to an excellent D incorporation at CH2 position but also with some D incorporation at CH3 position. The conversion is lower than when KOMe is used as the base. In Exp 15, a catalyst based on Ir instead of Ru was also successful at producing the desired deuterated ethanol.
[00119] Numerous modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise that as specifically described herein.
